Drawing on Spanish archives and the queen's own letters, Walsh traces Isabella's life from a precarious, impoverished childhood at Arévalo to her final years as the sovereign who united Castile and Aragon, drove the last Muslim kingdom from Iberia, and backed Columbus when every court in Europe had turned him away. It is history written the way Walsh believed it should be told - without embarrassment about sanctity, and without deference to the secular historians he spent his career arguing against.
A graduate of Yale and later a professor at Manhattanville College, Walsh was among the most decorated American Catholic historians of his generation - awarded the Laetare Medal by the University of Notre Dame and, by the Spanish government itself, the Cross of the Civil Order of Alfonso the Wise. Isabella of Spain was selected by the Catholic Book Club on its first publication and translated into Spanish, French, and German.
